            “ no , no . i was the one in the way . i was taking up a lot of space .. ”
              ah , stupid . stupid . now he was just apologizing when he was being told he didn’t need to ! he really wasn’t good at any of this socializing stuff . 
              “ thank you . um … do you think these two jackets look different ? i can’t decide which to get .. ”
Tumblr media
    “no it’s fine really-” Rather than continue to circle around apologies, he’ll focus on the jacket and the task at hand. 
“Yeah, I mean this one has a little bit of a lighter color. and this is styled differently..what kind of look are you going for?”

“Oh, it’s you again. Good to see you.” It had been a little while- not since that incident with those weird candies and the halloween costumes. He’d been acting fairly normal at the time, though… or at least he figured as much. That whole Half-Might act wasn’t too far off how he was normally. 
“Say, actually- have you heard of any rumors of anything suspicious going on around here lately?” Golden was overall one of the safer-seeming districts in his opinion, but that didn’t mean it was completely safe. “I’ve been trying to look into some rumors, but not getting very far. Hard to tell what’s reliable in a place as strange as this.”
  “Hey, Good to see you too, Half-Might.” Akira a hint of teasing in his tone but, he’d shrug it off with a smile. “ Rumors? None come to mind...” He considered tossing the phantom thieves existence around, though we’ll see how the conversation goes.  “What kind of rumors have you been hearing? This place seemed pretty squeaky clean...”
Tumblr media
  “Are you some journalist or something?”

                   “ oh. am i in your way? i’m sorry. ”
Tumblr media
                    he was at the store, trying to buy a couple of new clothes since those didn’t seem to appear with him in this new world. he didn’t even realize he was taking up to much space as he held up two suit jackets to compare them… even though they basically looked the same.
                    he bows his head a bit, taking a step to the side. 
                  “ oh. do you happen to know where the ties are? ”
@thievingtrickster​
     He might as well look for some new clothes. Coming here in his school uniform wasn’t exactly ideal. It’s not like he had to worry about the schools reputation or punishment from anything he did. Though it wouldn't hurt to have something more comfortable.
However he wasn’t exactly trying to get in the older man’s way-
Wait, Why was he apologizing?
  “It’s fine- I’m sorry if I was in yours-”
Tumblr media
“I think they’re over there..” A finger will point on the table not far from them.

Ryuki nodded when the other guy responded, the look on his face getting a bit less forced. His hero smile still wasn’t that great, but he did practice it! Or… maybe that was the problem. A bit hard to tell.
Tumblr media
“Oh, thanks. But you haven’t? He’s the greatest superhero.” Super strong, super cool, the exact sort of person that Ryuki could look up to. He wanted to be a hero of justice himself, and at the moment, it was something that really did feel plausible.
  “Not really,” If there was anybody who would know about ‘the greatest superhero’ it would probably be Futaba, or maybe even Akechi. 
Tumblr media
  It’s a shame he cant ask them about it. So he’ll have to study up solo this time around. “I’m not super caught up on this kind of stuff, but, you defiantly look heroic.”

dioscural​:
       CLOSING HIS HAND OVER THE SMALL BOTTLE NESTLED IN HIS PALM and slipping it into his pocket, shinjiro turns away from the dark ahead, departing the mouth of the alleyway. when the lamplight floods his features, he takes note of another across the street, clearly with nothing better to do than gawk at strangers. 
Tumblr media
       furrowing his brow, his eyes speak a wordless caution— before he turns away, resuming pace along the sidewalk. after a moment, he withdraws the bottle, contemplating it aloft in his palm… before flicking back the cap and swallowing back its contents. that should do it for now.
                                                                  @thievingtrickster​.
     Learning to behave himself, never really seems to work out, even when he tried. He was curious, and when he had the sense of something wrong he wasn’t about to let it be. 
Akira would stay back, hands in his pockets casually keeping his focus somewhere else..though when he does try to steal a glance over, it seems he got caught in the act..
 When he saw the other in the shadows, hunched over doing..something, he couldn't help but linger back, and keep an eye on it , waiting for a moment if he needed to step in.
Tumblr media
.. Though it seems his worries were for nothing.. He should probably just leave it be. He doesn't need to actively cause trouble right now.

“It’s alright now, because I am here! Half Might!” The so-called superhero offered the teen a hand, huge forced grin on his face when he spoke. That much was hardly a change from his usual behavior, honestly- the key difference for Ryuki right now was just in his getup, and the fact that he actually did feel a bit stronger than normal. “Half for all, we are full-time heroes!”
Helping a guy get up after tripping maybe wasn’t exactly what most people would go to when thinking about heroic acts, but he had to start somewhere, right? 
  “Thank you-- uh. Half Might.” He’d take the other’s hand carefully getting up. He really needs to start paying attention to where he’s going.. Full time heroes. And this man’s outfit.. A superhero?!
Wait, it’s Halloween Season isn’t it? And while his smile was a little unsettling at first, he didnt seem like a bad guy- 
Tumblr media
  “Sorry about that, I like your costume.. I never heard of Half Might before..”
